Chinese Style Mushroom Filled With Salmon Fil Recipe
Recipe Ingredients
1 salmon steak, fresh
FILLING
1 mushrooms, inoki, - julienne
1 carrot, julienne
1 mushroom, shitake, - julienne
1 celery, julienned
1 salt (to taste)
1 pepper (to taste)
1 oil, for frying
BRAISING SAUCE
1 lemon grass, white part - only, min, ced
2 tbsp shallot, minced
2 tbsp rice wine
2 tbsp fish sauce
1 tsp sesame oil
2 tbsp broth, chicken
1 tsp sugar
1 rice, cooked
1 cilantro (garnish)
Recipe Preparation
Preparation: ============
First julienne the mushrooms and vegetables into thin, short
strips. Set aside.
Cut the salmon steak in half. Take each half and slice it most of
the way through horizontally so the two pieces fold back on a hinge
like a hamburger or hot dog roll.
Prepare a braising glaze by mixing the "sauce" ingredients above
in a small bowl and stir and set aside.
Assembly: =========
Into each of the two salmon "sandwich" pieces, add a touch of salt
and pepper to taste and then add portions of Shitake, and Inoki
mushroom, celery and carrot as filling for the "sandwiches."
Close up the "sandwiches" and set aside.
To Cook: ========
In a small saute pan, heat a bit of peanut oil over high heat
until it begins to smoke and then put the salmon sandwiches in to
brown both sides (about 1 minute each side.)
When both sides are browned, add the braising sauce to the salmon.
Cover and braise over medium heat until the salmon is done ( 2 to 3
minutes).
Transfer the cooked salmon sandwiches to a serving plate and serve
with cakes of sticky rice and garnish with julienne fans of Szechuan
pickle.
Top with drippings from the saute pan, and pieces of Cilantro.

Food Tips of the Week
Advice on losing weightMake sure that you drink enough fluids. Your body requires water , it is crucial for our body's health and has no fat. It is also good in that it fills the drinker's belly and decreases feelings of emptiness. The recommended portions physicians claim that we should aim to drink as much as six cups of water every 24 hours.
Some low carbohydrate diet guidlines:
* Know what is in your food Be sceptical of sales blurb that claims 'low carb' - check the actual nutritional information on the reverse of the can or package. Many are only a little lower and in some cases still greater than a competitors standard brand. Also, beware of 'low sugar' and 'low fat' labels - 'low sugar' does not always mean 'low carb' - usually the carbs are just the same.
* Make reduced carb breadcrumbs for breaded foods. Although you may be able to buy reduced carb bread crumbs, you may also make them by simply using reduced carbohydrate bread. All you have to do is toast the reduced carbohydrate bread in a gas or electric oven on a cookie sheet. Once it is quite hard and crispy, process it in your food mill. Store in an airtight container.
Carotenoid foods
(includes cilantro, turnip greens and winter squash)
These colorful healthy plants are rich in the carotenoids believed by nutritionalists be a key nutrient in minimizing the risk of cancer, particularly those cancers involving the lung, esophagus and stomach. Most are low in calories, so you should add them to your weight loss regime.
